Default Ordered my AEM F/IC harness from Dezod..Now Install time

Hey folks after 2 attempts to go boost and first time lacking ordering a BOV and selling my kit. I have all the prices to the puzzle of boost have a full GReddy kit with injectors and the AEM F/IC gauges.
I think I'm going to install this weekend the F/IC and hit came off a friends tC so I use his tune and just have my mechanic tweak it where needed. I'm hoping on 8psi I can put down 260.
Is that reasonable?

Any advice for the install and next few months is greatly appreciated I know I have to change my clutch.

It's the FIC's internal language base and how it's interpreted.
